By the year 2000, office furniture had grown into a $13 billion dollar business comprised of more than 400 manufacturers and a distribution channel of over 3,000 dealers. Today, “office furniture” is evolving again, this time from a cubicle-based environment to a shared, sometimes communal space, with less furniture but more function. Today's new office design will be a major focus of corporate strategic planning for the next decade. Interior designers, specifiers, facility managers and corporate end-users now realize their choice of furniture - and their ability to plan, purchase and manage it effectively - can dramatically impact the outcome of their corporate initiatives. For years, the contract furnishings industry’s idea of how to cover itself was through trade publications such as Interior Design and Contract magazines. Publications were not viewed as strategic. Most were boring and had little useful information about the business of the office / contract furnishings industry. The increasingly critical role of office planning - driven by some of today’s hottest concepts, such as hoteling, hot desking, collaborative environments, etc. - has forever changed the way interior designers and facility managers choose, specify, purchase and manage furniture and related services. Facility managers, end-users, specifiers, interior designers and even dealers and manufacturers need a source of objective, comparative and holistic information to help them make informed decisions in this complicated and changing corporate environment. In addition, new issues including sustainability and recycling have increasingly made their way into the vocabulary of the office furniture industry. The Monday Morning Quarterback delivers.
